Dear Friend,

Immigrants are a vital part of our essential workforce, the care
infrastructure, our communities, and our families. During the COVID-19
pandemic, this has become even more apparent as immigrants played and
continue to play an integral role in our care infrastructure as caregivers
and other essential workers.

essential workers, Dreamers and TPS holders in the next economic recovery
package. *When you click, you’ll automatically sign on if we already have

What’s happening? Nearly 23 million immigrants have been putting their
lives on the line in essential roles [1] that keep our children and
families healthy, and keep our child care, health care system, long-term
care, food supply chain, and our economy running. Currently, Congress is
negotiating the next economic recovery package. Including a pathway to
citizenship in the next package is an important step toward rebuilding our
nation’s care infrastructure.

Congress to pass fair immigration legislation that protects immigrant
children and families! *When you click, you’ll automatically sign on if we

Since the start of the pandemic, the decline in mothers’ labor force
participation has been nearly double that of fathers’ and one out of four
women who reported becoming unemployed during the pandemic said it was
because of a lack of child care—twice the rate than men. [2] The U.S.
child care industry has long relied on Black, Asian, and Latina women,
including immigrants, with women of color making up 40% of its workforce.
[ [link removed] ] Creating a pathway to citizenship for immigrant essential workers,
Dreamers, and TPS holders is part of lifting up the child care supports
and child care jobs that will enable many women to return to the
workforce.

Members of Congress: 

Immigrants have played a critical role throughout the pandemic and we know
they will continue to play a critical role in our COVID recovery,
particularly in our care infrastructure. We know nearly 23 million
immigrants have been putting their lives on the line in essential roles
that keep our children and families healthy, and keep our child care,
health care system, long-term care, food supply chain, and our economy
running. 

Giving immigrant essential workers, Dreamers and TPS holders a pathway to
citizenship in the upcoming economic recovery package is an important step
toward rebuilding our nation’s care infrastructure. With mother’s stepping
out of the labor force at a higher rate than fathers, it’s clear that to
support their return to the workforce we must support child care and child
care jobs. 

Please support all efforts to protect immigrant families who have
tirelessly worked to support our communities throughout the pandemic.
Including a pathway to citizenship not only helps immigrant parents and
children, but all families across the country who rely on our immigrant
workforce.

Thank you,
